LED Light Bar??

So I've installed a 6 in LED light bar to my XC-F 350. Before installing I checked the wiring and brightness of the light to an alkaline battery. Everything worked fine, the light was blinding! :thumbsup: When I installed the wiring to my Lithium battery on the bike and added a simple on/off switch,...

Linkage Protection?

Looking to put some linkage protection on my 2015 350 XC-F...any recommendations? I have a Scorpion skid plate on there now, so I was hoping I could just add something to what I already have. Thoughts? :thinking:

Re: Battery not keeping a charge?

I have a battery tester (just a cheapo PA one, but it does give a load bank test) which you can use if interested.

After being on the charger for an hour, I just started it fine. The volt meter was reading 12.2 standing and 14.3 when running. Wouldn't that suggest that the stator is working fine?

Battery not keeping a charge?

HELP! 2015 XC-F 350, battery is not keeping its charge? :confused: Before I replace it, I was hoping someone might have some insight on if I am missing something? I hadn't ridden for a couple of weeks and went to try and start it on the weekend, nothing happened. The battery was completely dead. Put...
